    arrived today! 

    Whoa! How much did you pay in customs?
    I wasn't able to do what you had suggested. I created that UPS account, but the website just kept loading. So I had to pay $47.12 taxes and duty. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    Recent acquisitions now boxed to join their friends in the garage never to be seen again…

    Pretty cool, if you wanna send me one instead of boxing them up maybe I'll learn to skate :)

    Wouldn't it be funny if the world ended in 2010, with lots of fire?

    Ok. Mine is coming tomorrow. They want $60. Lol. I'm going to the local customs and just paying the taxes. That's it. Damn UPS!

    Since Friday I must of spoke to 6 UPS reps on the phone, just trying to get the customs declaration and the UPS forms sent to me via email. None of them knew what they were doing. So glad the rep this morning knew what he was doing.

    UPS wanted $60 in fees. $45 brokerage fees was waved. Paid only $15 just for the taxes.

    Dude #1: (goes to get something in the back)
    Dude #2: man, this board is SICK. where did you get it?
    me: (repeats answer)
    Dude #1: (comes back) so where did you say you got this?
    me: limited edition design by pearl jam's bass player
    Dude #1: what's a pearl jam?
    me: band that started in the 90's
    Dude #1: ah, my g/f likes 90's music, I should ask her if she knows them
    me: pretty sure she does (eye roll)

    Ugh. That story reminds me of many years ago I went into a Tower Records looking for a new remastered release of The Beatle’s Yellow Submarine. I asked the very young girl behind  the counter if they had it. She said, “who?” I said, “The Beatles”. She then asked a co-worker,”Do we have anything by a band called The Beatles?” I think I aged 100 years right there on the spot.

    Looks great! 
    I’ll share these here since they’re somewhat related. MPS Classic series decks. These were made a surprise gift by Jeff  for the gents at the MPS event in Montana last August.  The  original G&S, Sims, and Caster art was “reimagined” by Don Pendleton.  I was able to get  a set of these signed by Strople, Saladino, and Bowman. I’m going to try and send the  Inouye up to him to finish the set. Big thanks to David at SK8 Supply in San Diego for his help and to  Brad Bowman for giving up some of his stash.
